  • Prevention of Impairment and Disability Projects

    States

    Andhra Pradesh

    Maharashtra

    The implementation of disability prevention and medical education in leprosy (DISPEL) for ten years gave rise to the POID initiatives. Early detection, treatment, referral, and disability management are the main focuses of the POID project. It puts the community first and gives it the authority to make decisions for the health and welfare of its members. The project works with district health systems to guarantee that services are accessible in the person's neighbourhood. The POID project is currently being carried out in three districts across two states (Andhra Pradesh & Maharashtra) in association with ALERT India and the Maharashtra State Leprosy Society.

    One of SEI's major projects, POID, was recognised in 2013 at the International Leprosy Congress (ILC) in Brussels with the "Young Scientist" award.
